The problem with the lede is the positioning of the words “Democrats” and “think” next to each other.
The fault line is between those who believe in the 2nd Amendment and the right to self defense and those who do not. Which largely mirrors right and left.
Yet they refuse to even acknowledge that maybe night after night of looting and burning of a city might not be the best way to exercise your right to petition your government for the redress of grievances.
Clearest case of self defense anyone will ever see.
Democrats don’t believe in self defense.
Most democrats also believed in the Russia/Trump collusion scam, which as we all know now, was complete garbage.
I imagine most respondents have heard nothing bout this case but MSM headlines.
Democrats don’t believe in the right of selfdefence, except for when it applies to a Democratic/communist.
What this poll indicates to me is 36% of the people (innocent) are following the story and actually reading and listening and deciding for themselves as to what is going on.
37% of the public (guilty) are relying on MSM for their information on the matter, so are getting slanted news.
27% have no clue about the incident and couldn’t care less, as long as it doesn’t interfere with their______(insert pass time here: video gaming, sport viewing, porno viewing).
This certainly has exposed the legal illiterates. Hope they are not voters.
That Dems favor a convicted child rapist Antifa member who drew his weapon first to try and kill Kyle is no longer surprising to me.
HOW many Democrats have buildings in the path of BLM rioting & looting & burning?????
The problem with this and almost all polls is that they ask UNINFORMED people their opinions in order to influence other uninformed people what they should think.
Anyone who is in the slightest knowledgeable about the facts of this case can only come to one conclusion.
He is being railroaded.
Guilty of what?
Nobody has ever explained to me what Rittenhouse did that was criminal.
Democrats literally make up the rule of law as they go, with any given conduct being legal or illegal, depends whose ox is being gored.
Here they make being in Kenosha with a defensive firearm, an element of the crime - provocation. Kyle provoked violence by being there, defensively armed, therefore he is guilty of murder.
But that is not what the law is. It is legal to be defensively armed in Kenosha. Use of deadly force is legal, if taken in self defense. there is a huge body of law on this, but the democrats refuse to consult it. In fact, they LIE about what the law is, in order to get the outcome they want.
This subversion happens at all levels, all the way up to Congress and SCOTUS, and everywhere in between. They are fundamentally dishonest.
Anybody who has watched the testimony and still thinks he is guilty shouldn’t be allowed to vote.
Applying actual, proven, fact to the law has nothing to do with what people who don’t know either the facts or the law believe (or, rather, emote). Though, tragically, those formerly widely separated things have been blurring together in the last few decades. I hope that the jury in this case can resist the popular tide and rule on whether or not Kyle Rittenhouse actually violated the law.
Indeed self defense is not guilt.
Idiots believing their task masters.
He played a stupid game and won a stupid prize. But it still looks like self-defense.
Democrats think what CNN and MSNBC tell them to think. It is really that simple
